SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS IN STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK FOR SUSTAINABLE IMPLEMENTATION OF PRECAST CONCRETE FOR LOW-COST HOUSING IN INDONESIA
Abstract:
The aim of this research was to conduct situational analysis of industrialized precast concrete by assessing its sustainability criteria to build low-cost housing in Indonesia. The stakeholders interviewed included the Indonesian Government as the owner and donor policy, the precast concrete manufacturers, the contractors and consultants/designers of the construction industries. The Analytical Hierarchy Process AHP hybrid method was used to assist the quantification of SWOT analysis in Internal Factors Analysis Summary (IFAS) and External Factor Analysis Summary (EFAS) framework. There were thirty-three strategic factors listed in this research derived from five pillars of sustainability namely economic value, ecological performance, social equity and culture, technical quality, and implementation and enforcement. The fact finding revealed that there is no significant difference among various stakeholder organizations in responding the thirty-three strategic factors. The stakeholders also agreed upon the same three-most important factors under each SWOT category; although prioritization among stakeholders is vary. Moreover, the strengths outweighed the weaknesses in the IFAS and the opportunities outweighed the threats in the EFAS. According to the total weighted score calculation of IFAS and EFAS, the position of precast concrete implementation for low-cost housing in Indonesia was located in Strength-Opportunity Quadrant, which implied the possibility of Growth. Finally, sixteen critical factors were considered significant in improving sustainability efforts for precast concrete implementation.
